Top Housing Top Housing Trim Ring Canopy Adapter Adapter Thread the wires through the top housing. Place the top housing onto the motor housing so that the holes in the top housing lineup with the holes in the motor housing and the adapter. Rest the trim ring on the top housing. Place the canopy on the top housing. Ensure all four screw holes line up with the screw holes in both the top housing and the adapter. 5
Top Housing (continued) 3/8 CUT & STRIP 8 (not to scale) Top Housing Screws Grounding Screw Install the top housing screws. Install the grounding screw in the smaller screw hole. These screws can be found in the hardware bag. The wires can be cut, but leave at least 8 extending from the top of the canopy. 8 3/8 6
Hanging the Fan Ceiling Plate Hook Ceiling Plate Hook Raise the fan and align the slots in the canopy with the hooks on the ceiling plate. Note: To hang the fan, you must tilt the canopy to an almost vertical position so that the canopy slots sit on the ceiling plate hooks. Place the slots over the ceiling plate hooks to hang the fan. 7 Note: Fan style may vary.
Wiring Note: To connect the wires, hold the bare metal leads together and place a wire connector over them, then twist clockwise until tight. FROM CEILING Receiver Using an orange wire connector from the hardware bag, connect the 3 grounding wires (green, green/ yellow stripe, or bare copper) coming from the ceiling and ceiling plate. green/yellow stripe (grounding) green Place the receiver inside the canopy FROM CEILING PLATE Refer to CAUTION c.1 on pg. 2 8 Turn the splices upward and push them carefully back through the hanger bracket into the outlet box. Spread the wires apart, with the grounded wires on one side of the outlet box and the ungrounded wires on the other side of the outlet box.

Canopy Ceiling Plate Hooks Canopy Screw Screw Holes Canopy Screw Swing the fan up to align the canopy screw holes with the mounting holes on the ceiling plate. Note: The slots in the canopy must remain engaged while swinging the canopy for alignment. Hold the canopy up with the screw holes aligned. Partially install two canopy screws, found in the hardware bag, into the holes opposite the ceiling plate hooks. Partially install a canopy screw, found in the hardware bag, between the ceiling plate hooks. When all the holes are properly aligned, securely tighten all three canopy screws. 10
Canopy (continued) Canopy Trim Ring Using both hands, push the canopy trim ring up to the top of the canopy. The canopy trim ring will snap and lock into place.

Install the third switch housing screw. Tighten all three screws securely. 14 Make sure the lower switch housing is securely attached to the upper switch housing. Failure to properly secure all three assembly screws could result in the light fixture falling.
Switch Housing (continued) Tab Notch Lift the switch housing cap and align the notches in the globe with the tabs in the switch housing. Attach the cap to the switch housing kit by twisting it clockwise until it snaps into place. 15
Remote Control Battery Door Switch Cover Plate Turn Power ON Phillips Head Screw Removed Tabs Rocker- Style Plate CONGRATULATIONS! YOU RE DONE! To access the battery compartment, remove the small Phillips head screw that secures the battery door to the transmitter assembly. The battery should be installed with the positive (+) side up. Replace with a CR2032 battery when necessary. To install the transmitter cradle, remove the two screws holding the switch cover plate. Do not remove the cover plate. Orient the cradle by lining up the two mounting holes with those on the cover plate. Insert and tighten the screws. Do not over tighten. Note: For rocker-style cover plates, break off the tabs by pushing outward. See next page for fan operation instructions. 16
Operation, Maintenance, & Cleaning Fan Off Medium Speed High Speed Low Speed Reverse Switch To turn on fan, press a fan speed button. Speeds range from off (0) to high (3). The remote transmitter should already be paired to the receiver and ready to use. Note: If your need to pair your remote, turn fan power off and back on at the wall switch. Within 3 minutes, press and hold both the Fan Off button and the High button for 4 seconds to pair the remote. To prevent faulty operation, please ensure all other ceiling fans within range are turned off at the wall switch while pairing. To switch the direction of air flow, move the reverse switch to the opposite position. You will need to remove the glass to do so. When cleaning the fan, use soft brushes or cloths to prevent scratching. Cleaning products may damage the finishes. 17
Troubleshooting Fan doesn t work Make sure power switch is on. Pull the pull chain to make sure it is on. Push the motor reversing switch firmly left or right to ensure that it is engaged. Excessive wobbling Tighten all of the blade and blade iron screws until they are snug. Turn the power off, support the fan carefully, and check that the hanger ball is properly seated. Noisy operation Tighten the blade and blade iron screws until they are snug. Check to see if any of the blades are cracked. If so, replace all of the blades. Lights dim when turned on or do not turn on at all. Make sure the wattage of the light bulbs installed matches the specifications on the light sockets. Check the circuit breaker to ensure the power is turned on. Make sure the blades spin freely. Use the provided balancing kit and instructions to balance the fan. Turn off power from the circuit breaker, then loosen the canopy and check all the connections according to the wiring diagram on pages 9-10. Check the plug connection in the switch housing. Remote control of fan is erratic Make sure the battery is installed correctly. Install a fresh battery. Transmitter only works when held at close range Change battery. If you have multiple remotes or multiple remote-controlled fans installed on the same circuit breaker and you are experiencing interference or faulty operation of your remote controls, please go to www.hunterfan.com/faqs and click How do I properly install multiple remote-controlled fans? for information on how to correct this issue. 18
